Hello,

I am very new with Visual Build Pro. I'm trying it to see if it answers our needs.

Is Visual Build Pro Like an Install Sheild Builder ???

I tried building the sample project "Prompt" and when it had finished, I could not find the "exe" file (setup.exe or something).

I am very confused at what Visual Build Pro does if it does not do that.

Thank you,

Richard Z.

Visual Build Pro does not (directly) create install/setup executables. VBP is a build management tool; it aids in the entire build process which, among other things, might include creation of an installation executable (via InstallShield, Wise, etc.), and third party tools such as those can be called from VBP along with the other steps that comprise your build process. See the web pages at http://kinook.com/VisBuildPro/ for more details.
